1. I'm weary of this world, though it is not weary of me;
Now in it, desires burn me up like glowing coals.
١. لقد ضجرتُ منَ الدنيا، وما ضَجِرَتْ
للآنَ تُحرقُني فيها الأخاديدُ
2. I'm like a lump in the breast of an exile far from home
Who wanders idly with no tricks left up his sleeve!
٢. كأنّني غُصّةٌ في صدرِ مُغتَربٍ
يمشي بأُبَّهَةٍ.. والحَيْلُ مهدودُ!
